Amazing experience with Mamnana Adventures Tours!
Communication was clear and prompt, even before we arrived in Tanzania. Our guide, Mr. Joseph, was knowledgeable, jovial, and so patient with all our questions (especially my daughter’s!). The van was clean and always stocked with water, Coca-Cola, flavoured yoghurt, and snacks, and lunch boxes were varied and catered perfectly to our dietary needs.
The walking safari with park ranger Mr. Abbas was a highlight, he was extremely knowledgeable and attentive, making it so much more interesting. They exceeded my expectations, far better than the company we booked through our hotel for another trip. Highly recommend you won’t regret it!

Amazing Guide and great tour
We were very well guided around the giraffe center and the Sheldrick Elephant orphanage as well as a game drive through the Nairobi National Park on the way to catch our flight. Wilfred our guide was excellent and very knowledgeable on everything. Truly a great experience

Excellent organization, great communication, and an unforgettable safari at a fair price.
We are a French family with three children, and we booked a 3-day / 2-night safari to Mikumi with Imara Tours. We highly recommend them!
The organization was excellent from start to finish. Fessal was always responsive, helpful, and flexible, making sure every one of our requests was taken care of. All the logistics (ferry, train, transfers, luggage storage, etc.) were handled perfectly, allowing us to enjoy the experience without any stress.
Our French-speaking guide and our driver were fantastic. Thanks to them, we were lucky enough to see 3 of the Big Five along with many other incredible animals.
The value for money was excellent. After comparing many different tour operators, Imara Tours offered one of the best prices without compromising on quality.
Thank you to the whole team for an unforgettable safari !

Fantastic Experience With Moonlight Safaris
My wife and I did a 10 day private mobile camping safari with Moonlight. Bogosi picked us up at the Maun Airport and took us straight to Makgadikgadi in the Kalahari. His team (Alpha, George and Jiga) had the camp already set up for us. From there we doubled back through Maun to the Mababe Depression, the Savuti Reserve, Chobe National Park, Victoria Falls, and a Rhino park just outside Livingston. The Moonlight team would pack up the camp, drive to the next site, and set it up while Bogosi took us on game drives. It was all very convenient and well managed. The pre-trip communications were very professional with prompt replies from Bogosi or his daughter Amanda, who runs the office.
I am not much of an outdoors type so I was a bit skeptical about how all of this camping would work (my preference had been to stay at a lodge) but my wife really wanted to do this so I went along with it. And I have to say it was way nicer than I had expected: the bedding was quite comfortable, the tent and private bath were roomy, Jiga cooked great meals, there was a Starlink internet connection, the Landcruiser had big fridge and power points to charge our gear, everything was clean and in working order. And the payoff was spectacular - staying at camps deep in the wilderness meant we literally started animal watching within minutes of starting our drives. It also meant watching the sunrise at various watering holes while folks back at the lodges were just getting out of bed.
We saw a ton of wildlife and Bogosi seemed to know the best timing and places to be to see it all. He is especially knowledgeable with regards to birding. It was also interesting to see him interact with guides from the other camps - they all stop to share info when they cross paths and it is very collaborative. But it was also clear that the other guides held Bogosi in high regard and were happy to pick his brain. The whole experience was just epic and of the 60 countries that I have traveled to, this has to be one of top experiences all time. Highly recommend Moonlight Safaris.

They get the job done!
Julius was, without question, one of the absolute highlights of our Masai Mara trip.
His years of experience shone through in every decision he made. From perfectly timed game drives to exceptional judgment on where to position the vehicle for the best views and photographs, we always felt we were in the safest pair of hands behind the wheel, even on the toughest terrain.
When it came to spotting wildlife, Julius was nothing short of incredible. He seemed to know exactly where to find the Big Five and somehow always managed to get us the best angles without disturbing the animals. Time and again, we found ourselves with front row seats to unforgettable moments.
Beyond being an exceptional guide, Julius has a larger than life personality. His charisma is infectious, and it genuinely felt like he knew everyone we crossed paths with. I would not be surprised if there was not a soul in Kenya who did not know Julius.
And then there is his sense of humor. Hands down, he is one of the funniest people I have ever met. He had us laughing throughout the trip and made every drive memorable, even between sightings.
We came to the Masai Mara expecting to miss the lions when we left, but truthfully, we are going to miss Julius even more. If you are lucky enough to have him as your guide, your safari is already off to an incredible start.

Very knowledgeable , entertaining and helpful
Tamrat made the tour very enjoyable. In the way to the Church he would describe everything that we pass/see which made the ling very bearable . As we were a small group he made sure any little thing we wanted to do or change was granted. I would definitely recommend this tour and especially this guide if you will be visiting Ethiopia.

Famous Serengeti & Legendary Ngorongoro Crater Exploring Was Excellent.
Our group recently completed a five-day luxury safari in Tanzania, visiting the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater, and it exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived, Kaka welcomed us very warmly.
The Serengeti was teeming with wildlife, and our experienced guide helped us spot animals that we would have easily missed on our own. Seeing elephants, zebras, cheetahs, and countless antelopes roaming freely was an unforgettable experience. The highlight for all of us was descending into the Ngorongoro Crater, where we were amazed by the incredible concentration of animals in such a beautiful setting. This safari was more than just sightseeing; it was an opportunity to connect with nature, share incredible moments with friends, and create memories that will remain forever.

Dishonest company
Booked and paid for safari back in may in FULL to then have to pay a further 1130 dollars to actually get our safari we had to pay the entrance fees and the driver or we wouldn’t of had one! He promised to return all the money! Lies and fobs you off avoid unless you want your trip to be ruined and leave you with no money for the rest of your trip
Very organised
Very well organised, good resorts, excellent guide David and we had no issues, everything planned very well

The best safari experience in Tanzania
Our guide, John, was absolutely incredible and made our safari experience unforgettable. He was extremely patient, kind, and professional throughout the entire trip. He answered every question we had with great detail and shared so much fascinating information about the animals, their behavior, and the environment. You could really see how passionate and knowledgeable he is. He never rushed us and always made sure we understood everything. What impressed us the most was his determination to help us see as many animals as possible. He never gave up looking until we found them, and he always positioned the vehicle in the best possible spot so we could enjoy amazing views and take beautiful photos. Thanks to him, we saw an incredible variety of wildlife and had experiences we will never forget. He constantly checked that we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better guide. John is one of the main reasons our safari was such an amazing and unforgettable experience. We highly recommend him to anyone visiting Tanzania.
Thank you John (:
